Go To

This is a thread where, as the title implies, our avatars (from our galleries) are posting in an in-universe forum thread. You can drop in any time with pretty much any character you want, whether from existing works or your own OCs. Though most of it is done through forum posts, some "in-person" interactions between characters is also fine.

Even if this is a more casual RP, there are still some rules and general RP etiquette to keep in mind for everyone to have a good time and feel comfortable:

  • NO GODMODDING. Godmodding is when you decide what happens to another player's character, and is generally frowned upon. In particular, avoid injuring and especially killing someone else's character; fighting is ok but let the other player decide if the hit connects. If your plot idea requires something to happen to a different player's character, you'll want to privately discuss this with them and if they're ok with that. This includes in-universe moderation.
  • Be nice and respect other players' boundaries. Your character being mean or a jerk is one thing, but if someone gets uncomfortable about your behavior towards their characters, knock it off. Also do not force others into your story arcs; in general it would be a good idea to ask the other person first if they are interested, and plan it together if they are.
  • If you have anything to say, ask about, ect. that is not part of the RP, you can put it under a spoiler tag [[spoiler: like this]]
  • While almost any character is welcome, please avoid playing any real-life person who's mainly associated with controversies, drama and problematic behavior. We don't need that here.
  • Have fun!

    Original post 

Ahh, console video games (or vidcons as I call them). the ultimate medium of expression, able to convey any emotion ranging from hatred to love, loyalty to fear, all in front of our eyes. Ah, and with lovingly crafted art, music, and the ability to control the action, vidcons are the ultimate combination of the high arts. While I tend to play the stoic, I will be the first to admit that vidcons haven driven me to cry, to scream and shout, to feel actual hate; such is the power of this force beyond our wildest reckoning. And here I am, before you, to temp your tongues with the taint of such a tantalizing topic.

And the Japanese, the true geniuses behind the world of video games. Pah, I throw my scorn upon such incompetents of the West who would mock the true art of the Japanese with 'games' such as Baldur's Gate and Madden. Perhaps it is that the West is not as intelligent as the East, but this is a matter for another day. Japan has given us such masterpieces as the Final Fantasy series, Star Ocean, Wild Arms, and of course, Arc the Lad. Yes, some of the finest vidcons in the world were created by Japanese. I come to you today to ask you in all earnesty, what is your favorite vidcon? I will reveal mine after the grand debate has illustriously begun, but not before the first poster falls victim to my plot of discussion.

In other words, this is a thread on an imaginary forum our avatars frequent. The topic can fluctuate, and its mostly just general discussion.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/role_model.jpg Bonjour, everyone! I hope we're not interrupting anything important but we just saw Sonic Movie 2 and Knuckles!

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/spirit_animal.jpg I definitely consider it a better sequel since it felt closer to the games (especially with lesser focus on humans)!

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/candy_paku_hey.png It's like a live action version of Sonic 2, 3 and Knuckles!

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/moriritchi_sunset.jpg OMG, it's pretty impressive that they combined the stories of those games into one!

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/clulu_smile_ii.png Well a lot of old school games were pretty simplistic when it comes to stories.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mirai_smile_ii.png Unless it's an RPG game (which I don't play a lot of them to be honest).

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lovelitchi_pink_flowers.png Still, I can tell they really cared for the fans of this one!

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/melodytchi_good.png Yes, they did a great job! It's a 9 out of 10 movie imo.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kiraritchi_good.png Man, I can't wait for Sonic Movie 3 cause things are gonna get crazy!! Spoiler 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/70300444_423158678404548_3343479924357402607_n.jpg Uh Kiraritchi, don't give anything away about the next one for those who haven't seen it yet! Spoiler

#61093: Apr 9th 2022 at 7:34:43 PM

[up][up][up]   Well because you asked for Merasmus’s life story, I the great Merasmus, was born in Sumerian somewhere around 6,000 years or so where, I learned the dark arts let me get magic, and lived a lot longer where father time will never get me after that a long time passed, don't ask Merasmus about that, wherein 1860 I was selling my well known Wizard Brew Hat Tonic, they were selling like hot cakes even to this day, anyway! In the 1900's I used my magic to buy myself a castle in Scotland, where also nothing happen other than some dumb kid opened my Bombinomicon and got a ghost in his eye, and well the great Merasmus didn't want to be sued so, I take the kid's eye and got my castle and me out of there but after I lost my castle to a horse bet, I was forced to move into an apartment with that thing called Soldier, the worst idea I have made! Even when I got myself a new castle, that Soldier came back to my life just to ruin it even more where yes I did kick him out of my house once and for all! And so to cheer me up and to please the great evil clown god Bonzo from the 12,000 money I borrowed from the Yakuza where I learn that the Great Merasmus made a mistake because of a certain someone not telling me that the Carnival wasn't on top of an ancient Indian burial ground which is how I lost my right pinky after all of that madness I had to do for Bonzo, I got myself back home only to see that damn Soldier again now turning my castle into a raccoon sanctuary and damaging my 15th edition Bombinomicon and lost my castle no thanks to the law, so I the Great Merasmus tried to buy a new castle with money from the Russian mafia, it was a bad idea I was held up by a pumpkin with a gun after getting myself a soul-stealing gargoyle with help for the Mercenaries. And being in debt and homeless can do someone to even a great wizard like me so I had to live in the Y.M.C.A, and well just to cut to the chase I found a new roommate and home before Soldier killed my roommate and framed me of murder where I was sent to prison before escaping. And so from that day, the great Merasmus has been trying to kill Soldiers, and his friends, each and every Halloween! Or when I feel like it.

[up][up][up][up] I recalled my world’s origins a long time ago, so here’s what my world is right now. We Gems live on probably on the only island on the planet, with all 28 of us living in a special school where we all have a job to do, well except me. We always had to defend ourselves from the Moon People, although Icarus’s fighters are really helpful in this regard.

[up][up] Any magic tricks to deal with Moon people?

bonnie shut your useless ass nobody gives a shit and even if they did i could explain it much better than you do

BUT FREDDY

FREDDY

shut the fuck up before i undo the retrieval of your fucking head

...OK

anyways back to the describing ourselves something which bonnie tried to do but completely fucked up in delivering an explanation
ahem

you see four of us are animatronics
animatronics are robots designed to entertain the patrons of various establishments, in our case that would be a pizzeria
normally they are not supposed to be sentient let alone sapient but our universe is fucked up on a fundamental level
which means we are alive
for no fucking reason
just like many other things in our universe

you better not question it unless you enjoy migraines

FREDDY
THAT'S WHAT I WAS GOING TO TELL TH-

shut the fuck up bonnie nobody gives a shit

FOR FUCKS FUCKING SAKE THIS TOPIC OF PEOPLE EXPLAINING THEIR FUCKING NATURE HAS ALREADY ENDED LIKE 25-30 POSTS AGO YOU ARE WAY TOO FUCKING LATE FOR THAT

[1] My limitations are, hmm... anything that's heavier than one solar mass? Preferably less though, because I do want to set up some assembly lines for Project 10,000. Whatcha need?

[2] Depends on your scope. I'd say, find anything notable relative to your scope, and describe any details relevant to it?

If it disagrees with experiment, it's wrong.
